History
In the earlier days, Pleasant View was formerly known as "Bradley's Stand," as well as "Turnbull Horse Stamp." The mail and telegraph lines ran from Clarksville to Nashville, and the Town of Pleasant View served as stagecoach stop and rest area between the two cities.
The town was named Pleasant View by a group of citizens in 1870. The first post office began in 1880.
Pleasant View was incorporated under a house bill in 1921 and consisted of approximately 105 acres. At the time, the local government consisted of a mayor and six aldermen and was divided into three wards. The town was unincorporated ten years later. In 1996, when the citizens of Pleasant View voted to re-incorporate under a public act mayor/Aldermanic Charter.
The population of Pleasant View at the time of the incorporation was approximately 2,150. Initially, the town of Pleasant View was governed by a mayor and two aldermen. David Davis served as Mayor from October 10, 1996, until December 1998. Morris Bidwell served as Vice-Mayor, Alderman, and Don Worrell served as Alderman.
In 1998, the town voted to increase the number of Aldermen to serve on the Board to four (with one being the vice mayor). Pleasant View City Hall is currently located at 1008 Civic Court.
